Even With My Dying Breath Just One More Chance

Ep 5:

Sarah  POV:

"It's not yours" I tell him

"Like I'm wrong to protect what's mine, huh?" Rafe says and I honestly couldn't be the way he's acting trying to justify what he has done to me, to my friends.

"Like how you protect Nala?" I said to him and I can see they clearly struck a nerve with him.

"Don't bring her up. Don't try and use her-

"Yeah she told us what you did and why you're so obsessed with her" I tell him and I can see that he's getting angry from me just mentioning that but I see that he's still trying to stay calm about it all.

"You don't know a thing about us. I saw her first. I Had her first. She Is Mine!!" Rafe shouted out but then got calm again trying to be civil about this.

"Listen the cops are going to talk to you, and" He changes the topic getting to the truth behind him coming her, "And I need to make sure the story's straight because-

"You killed Peterkin. My story's straight" I tell him

"Listen, this would go so much better for you if you would—

"Who are you trying to protect here? Huh?" He questioned me

"I'm trying to do the right thing" I tell him trying to plead to him and get him to tell the truth

"You're trying to do the right thing?"

"I can't—

"You doing the right thing?" He repeats and I try to say something but he cuts me off,

"No your not listening to me. You doing the right thing is the reason that you got shot. Because you were following John B" Rafe told me

"John B might get the death penalty because of you!" I yell to him

"That! That right there. That's...that's exactly what I'm talking about, Sarah. you know?" Rafe raised his voice but then lowered it as he backed away and took a moment. "You've always been against me"

"No I haven't" I shake my head no

"Don't shake your head, and you still are." He says softly "No, no, no, no. You're not just against me. You're...you're against us. We're your family"

Honestly I don't know what kind of crazy he's been dabbling in but this is new.

"and you're against us. Dad always takes your side, right? Cause you're gonna cry in front of him like you cried in front of me" He said start to get hostile once again with me.

"But you listen to me. I'm a proactive type of person, Sarah. And we have a problem and I gotta solve that problem tonight. Do you understand? Do you understand!?" He yells at me and I make a break for it and he immediately starts to chase after me.

JJ POV:

Let's just say that plan is not going so well. I'm pretty sure they figured out that I'm a poser by now hence why I'm sitting in the back of an ambulance with the wrong patient in a case scene with cops on my ass and one in the drivers seat. I quickly pull out my phone and start texting Nala for an S.O.S because honestly I don't know what to do.

"Come on. Baby, I need a miracle"

She was supposed to be here with me but I didn't want her to be in anymore trouble so I did this without her which was a bad idea.

I see 2 more cop cars appear, "Shit!" This was horrible, I was gonna lose it all, "Shit!" I hit the door out of frustration. For a brief moment my breath felt uneasy and I started to get chest pains, a panic attack now? Wow, well this couldn't be a more fitting time right?

Well they were all right my life was just ment to be wasted away in a jail cell. I was stupid for even trying that to make my life more than that. Me ever getting to be happy and live that way was never going to be real, it's in my blood to stay a fucking pouge and nothing more. Well at least I had a nice family for a while, Pope, Kie, John B, they were the best family a guy like me could ask for.

And of course, Nala, the love of my life, it hurts that I couldn't make her happy till the very end, or that I couldn't keep my promise and marry her like we both dreamed of. She was the one person that always looked passed what everyone else saw and believed about me, she was able to see the person I am on the inside and I regret not telling her thanks for that.

Well one things for sure, we loved each other unconditionally, and I never really got to appreciate as much as I should've. So I felt us come to to a screeching stop and I end up hitting my head onto one on the metal cabinets.

"Sorry, I'm so sorry" I knew that was my chance to escape so I did. And I booked it for the hills, I didn't stop running I kept going not looking back. I see them pulling up and opening the door for me.

"Come on!" Pope yelled

"Open the door! Open the door!" Kie yells and I see Na-na opening the door and moving out of the way to let me in. I jump in and close the door tell them to go. I took a minute to breathe before saying anything, I couldn't even look Na-na in the eyes cause I could feel the anger flowing off of her.

"I'm seriously not even gonna ask" Kie said

"Look, I busted the wrong guy out of jail. Sue me" I told them

"What!?" Kie said questioning my choice of words

"Yeah actually I will sue you, you big idiot! How could you be so reckless and dumb! Why would you do it alone, you could have gotten yourself arrested or killed you dummy!" Nala shouted out at me while punching me in the shoulder, hitting me upside the head, and any other place she could.

"Na-na calm down okay, release your frustration out on him later" Pope told her and he helped pulled her off of me.

"At least I was trying" I say

"Why are you always doing such stupid shit?" Kie asked me

"Well, I'm gonna end up in jail anyway, so..." I say looking down at the floor, "so why dose it matter" I say and that's when they get quiet sharing a look between them 3 that I didn't know.

"You okay man?" Pope asked

"Yeah. Just a doozy of a day" I tell them and I rest my head back and look over at Na-na who's looking at the window avoiding eye contact with me at the moment. I shift positions and decide to lay down and catch some zzz's, I curl my body up and rest my head in Nala lap, knowing she won't refuse me laying there, she never did.

I let my body stretch out a little more and finally head of to sleep, feeling Nala's hand giving me head scratches and a kiss being placed on my temple. This was the sweet life and I will hold onto this as long as I can.
